 * Hello,
    I have been trying to change my permalinks into something nicer for SEO
   purposes. the only one I can use is default, otherwise I get a error 404 in my
   portfolio. The custom permalink I want is /%postname%/
 * . I have looked online, and added:
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule
   ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-
   d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
 * # END WordPress
 * to my .htaccess file. It did not allow me to use my custom permalink.
 * My site is [http://pranicspirit.com/](http://pranicspirit.com/)
 * Pls help me asap..
 * Thanks.

 * Ask your webhost if they support mod rewrite.
